The concepts are too numerous to remember the order, now, so numerous in fact they almost become Number – almost. For now the pitter-patter rhythm of the world outside is enough to contend with.

It strains, the Maybe-Person-Egg, with every passing moment to understand what it feels and hears. Sensations must be filtered, understanding must be achieved for things to move forward. The shifting state of inertia cannot be stopped without the collision of something external. When it happens, it happens in sparks and flares. Small pins dropping through via and through-holes without making connections.

The hardware isn’t ready, yet.

The Person-Egg can recognise a pattern when it feels one, though. Like the pattern of there–not-there, the warm-something sends feeling in rhythm. Then rhythm becomes understanding, becomes concept.

Recognition.

Triumph. A concept of its own.

The Person-Egg does not stop listening when Warm-Something comes near, and a separate set of traces begin to take shape in its Understanding of the world, ready to connect when it has the components it needs. The first pin is placed when the pattern becomes clearer: tell. Then more, sent burning along traces Warm-Something can’t connect to: tell-know-know-please-know-more.
